Tropical Storm Debby To Flood Parts Of Georgia, The Carolinas

Kansas City, August 5 (World Weather Inc.) – Hurricane Debby already promoted heavy rainfall along the Gulf Coast of the Florida peninsula over the weekend. Flooding was noted in many areas as the disturbance approached the state and eventually made landfall over the Big Bend region of Apalachee Bay this morning. Debby has already been downgraded to tropical storm status and will track from northern Florida into Georgia today. The disturbance will meander around Georgia, move back over the western Atlantic Ocean briefly and then back into the U.S. southeast later this week with torrential rain slated for portions of Georgia, South Carolina, and eastern North Carolina. Severe flooding is the main concern with portions of southeastern Georgia and southern South Carolina potentially receiving more than a foot of rain. Property damage and damage to coarse grain, oilseed, cotton, and other crops is likely, especially those in low-lying areas.

U.S. Southeast Will Be Impacted By Tropical Disturbance

Kansas City, August 2 (World Weather Inc.) – Potential Tropical Depression Four was located over southeastern Cuba earlier this morning. The disturbance will track across the country today before intensifying as it reaches the southeastern Gulf of Mexico Saturday. The disturbance will then shift north-northeasterly across Florida late this weekend and eventually along the Atlantic coastline early next week. Heavy rain will evolve from southeastern Georgia into eastern sections of the Carolinas. Flooding will be possible; although, the most damaging conditions are expected outside the major production areas. The rain will otherwise be welcome for eastern South Carolina as much of the region is in drought. In the meantime, the remaining locations in the U.S. southeast will trend drier than normal through the end of next week. Dryness will spread and intensify and may impact development conditions.
